# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It comes together in literally ten minutes, making it perfect for those mornings when you want something special but time is running away from you
  • The texture contrast between cold creamy yogurt, crunchy granola, and bursty berries hits every possible satisfaction note in one bite
02 -
  • Once these parfaits sit too long, the granola starts getting soggy and the whole magic of that textural contrast just disappears
  • Always pat your berries completely dry with paper towels before layering, otherwise they release water and turn the bottom layer into soup
03 -
  • Use clear glasses because seeing those colorful layers is half the joy of eating this
  • Let the berries dictate how much sweetener you actually need, perfectly ripe fruit needs nothing extra
